Bayern's path to the semi-final was anything but simple, featuring a see-saw game that saw goals from Aleksandar Pavlovic, Kane, Luis Diaz, and Olise. The team showed immense character to overcome a 3-2 half-time deficit on the night, eventually making the most of their numerical advantage after Camavinga’s second yellow card. However, the absence of Kompany for the first leg against the French champions will add a layer of complexity to their preparation.
Domestic matters remain with a Bundesliga title potentially being wrapped up this weekend against Stuttgart and a DFB-Pokal semi-final against Bayer Leverkusen, but the Champions League is the ultimate prize. Bayern will need to show the same resilience they displayed against Madrid if they are to overcome PSG without their manager directing traffic from the dugout.
